Description

What better way to spend the spooky season, than a walk in the ghostly footsteps of King Alfred the Great? Led by an actor/comedian, bringing the haunted tales to life! We will meet at the Buttercross, as darkness falls. Then see the site of the nation's last female public execution. After we will visit the eerie ruins of Hyde Abbey, cemetery, and the actual resting place of England's first king! Also see the haunted sites, and hear such grisly tales, of Winchester's High Street and Cathedral and more...
